I used Garmin while in Japan before, and got SO FUCKING LOST so many times. Including going down a street that got so narrow, there was 2-3 inches on either side of the car. I had to back out (luckily there was a place to turn around)

My co-worker did the 2.2 update on my Bellus Vibrant but now I can't lock my mobile AP. Now at work, when I go online, all my co-workers can steal my wifi.

I tried changing it to secure, but then the OK button doesn't light up. I can only click on cancel.

did you pick which kind of lock?

set it to wpa2..and set a password!

That is the only option. But the OK button on the screen never lights up. The only time it will light up is when I set the security to open.

Got it to work. Turns out you need a password that is at least 9 characters long. :blush:

After having to update my phone with 2.2 and I didn't back any of my stuff up, I can't seem to download the NHL.com app.

Does anyone here know where I can find it?

All over the place. One of the highlights was driving late at night on the expressways in Nagoya. It's just like in a video game :lol

I did get pulled over going 50 KM over the limit (highways have REALLY LOW LIMITS). But it's like the international drivers license is a free pass sometimes ;)

Yeah, same here. NHL Game Center right? I depended on that app for up to the second updates.

Probably just doing a factory reset and formatting the internal SD card would suffice.

this seemed to have finally fixed my gps! locks in under 10 secs now after a 3 min warmup
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=864222

have to wait to see if it's really fixed when i get back home to my dead zone.

striderblade 12-15-2010 07:48 AM

Well this is my second sgs. First one bricked on me when i was watching video on youtube. This happen 3 weeks after i got the phone. Now the second one is acting up. Booting takes a long time and sometime it wont even boot. I just upgraded to froyo last week. And right now it said my internal and external sd card is unavalible. anyone got the same issue? Think i might get another phone. Anyone got any suggestion? i love the sgs a lot. Bought extra battery, case and screen protector. But i rather get a phone that work than worrying when the phone gonna die on me.

You got SGS-i9000 ? or i896 ?

as i know some of i9000 has internal SD problem.

Canadian Rider 12-15-2010 09:44 PM

My i9000's SD card died 3 days ago.. about 2 days after I upgraded to 2.2. I'm not very impressed..

striderblade 12-15-2010 09:57 PM

Mine is a i-9000s. Well unfortunately i can't exchange for another new phone. Was planning to get the htc desire z. Even though is cheaper that then sgs he still wont' let me exchange it. He's gonna send it in for repair. Minimum 3 weeks wait time. Got a replacement phone for now and told me i was the first one with this problems. Read on the forums that it was a manufacture defect with the internal SD card so guess i'm the bad luck one with the bad batch. Hopefully after the repair i won't have to deal with this crap again. Love the phone but if i have to deal with this shit every 3-4 weeks then i rather prefer a phone that work that the look.

After rooting and flashing nero v3 in my phone, I'm not able to "sound and display" or "location and security" settings anymore.
It would just say "The application settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Does then mean I gotta reflash it?

try rebooting a few times to see if it works. After flashing my contacts wouldnt show and some minor issues. once i rebooted, everything worked flawless.

if it does, reflash, but make sure you disable voodoo before you reflash.

stylez2k4 12-25-2010 11:35 PM

Anyone getting really shitty battery life? Running Nero V3 and can barely last 12 hours at minimum use

Nope. Last night I left my vibrant uncharged and woke up(7.5hours maybe) with only only 56% battery left.

CP.AR 12-26-2010 12:50 PM

pretty much all android phones have <full day of battery life
